The stellar techs at The Dashcam Store helped me pick out this camera for my 2023 Subaru Crosstrek. The cameras are compact and they basically blend right in (I don’t even notice it any more). I had a local shop hardwired them to my vehicle. The front camera was installed just below the driver’s side sun visor, rear camera was installed to the middle of the headliner. Both front and rear cameras are easy to use, they provides great play back and clear images. I also most recently picked up the LTE Module to accompany the dash cam, as well as the cloud services. The LET Module assists with the ease of operation and playback. I’m still learning how to use the app so the jury is still out on this aspect of the whole set up. CONS would be the white light on the rear ... MoreThe stellar techs at The Dashcam Store helped me pick out this camera for my 2023 Subaru Crosstrek.

This is an all-around great camera system for a 1st time dash cam owner/operator.

I purchased the DR970X Plus when my old BlackVue stopped working. This was an easy upgrade as the power cable, rear camera cable, and rear camera were all the same. I’ve chosen to stick with BlackVue because of their cloud integration, and I’m activating LTE in my dash cam for the first time to be able to get alerts wherever I am. I had a bit of concern once my dash cam was installed due to the GPS not working. Luke and Michael at BlackBoxMyCar walked me through various troubleshooting steps, and ultimately BlackVue updated their firmware that solved the issue. My next step is to purchase a BlackVue B-130X battery in the coming days so I can complete the package.

Bought a DR970X for my wife's car quite an improvement over my DR650GW with pairing and viewing videos directly from the camera. It seems to work well with the Blackvue mobile app compared to the DR650. I bought both from Blackbox and it was a seamless process. I would not buy from any other retailer, they know their products and it shows with them being in business for so long. As for Blackvue, solid product I have had my DR650 for at least 8 years in two different cars and it still works well.

Having had a single channel security camera in my C300 I wanted extra extra protection in my Mustang GT. I've invested a moderate amount of time and money into this car after getting it from the factory and wanted to make sure it was protected front and back. While the security camera doesn't prevent other people from doing stupid things it does give you piece of mind that when someone does something stupid you will have proof to hand to the police. One feature I really like is the ability to have it connect to the cloud when it's parked in my garage. Someone opens my garage door and it starts shooting that right to the cloud. Very nifty. If only LTE wasn't so expensive in Canada I'd get a data only LTE plan just for this and push everything to the cloud.One thing ... MoreHaving had a single channel security camera in my C300 I wanted extra extra protection in my Mustang GT.

I have parking mode turned ON (motion and impact sensor) for an hour after parking and set my Voltage threshold to 12v. It has warned me a few times that it was approaching and so turns the camera off. Just something to think about. You've already spend several hundred dollars whats $500 more :)
Overall the dashcam is a great setup. The app is easy to use. Sometimes doesn't connect to the cloud but just give it time. I subtracted one star because you can only use T-Mobile SIM cards. I had a Mint Mobile card that I wanted to use and come to find out it's not supported. The quality is good and I like the parking mode, as I've hardwired mine. I ended up adding Blackvue's accessory battery as well. Originally, I was using the car's battery and letting the Blackvue low voltage setting shut it off. But I didn't want to strain the battery in the long term so I added Blackvue's battery, which can be monitored in the app as well. I'd suggest getting the battery as it simplifies hardwire install. Just need to tap into an ACC fuse and ground wire. Compared to ... MoreOverall the dashcam is a great setup. The app is easy to use. Sometimes doesn't connect to the cloud but just give it time.

I had a 750S-2Ch with a B-124X battery pack before this and the cam died within 4 years. The rear cam gave out first 3 months ago, eventually the main unit died starting 2024. New SD card and new firmware couldn’t save it either. I have a 900S -2Ch in a different car with a B-124X as well and the rear cam is already showing artifacts with 2 years of use. Negative notes aside, I do love how sleek these dashcams look and the app isn’t too bad but there is definitely a learning curve on both Android and IOS. Can be a bit buggy too. Time will tell how the 970X-2CH holds up but hope I can get 5+ years of use, if not I will finally switch brands and hope for the best. 970X camera quality is awesome and noticeably better than the 750S. My B-124X is still going strong on ... MoreI had a 750S-2Ch with a B-124X battery pack before this and the cam died within 4 years.

My B-124X is still going strong on both cars and no issues pairing it with the 970X. If you plan on upgrading from an older BlackVue cam, the power cable may need to swapped to the one provided with the 970X. The rear cam cable didn’t need to be changed either.
Since I've started to commute again, I really wanted to have a Dash Cam installed. Their website was helpful to evaluate what kind of models/setup would make sense for our needs. I was super impressed with how streamlined the installation is in our vehicle too; the cables aren't visible whatsoever and each camera is mounted sturdily both front and rear.The BlackVue app has a lot of the same features and functionality as our smart home security (detection events are broadcast, recording logs, plus easy to use and understand).Within the first month we had a few close calls in traffic and I immediately felt reassured by our purchasing decision. Inevitably things happen, to us or other motorists, and I have more peace of mind knowing that whatever might happen out ... MoreSince I've started to commute again, I really wanted to have a Dash Cam installed.

Overall the camera functions as expected, the original file (once downloaded which takes far too long) is very crisp and functions well in daylight. Night performance is ok, but not amazing. Form factor is pretty good, it's a pretty large device, not bad in a truck, but I suspect it looks huge in a smaller car. Compared to its previous versions the original video (downloaded video) is great, but the downside for this model is the preview video quality. It seems to be lower quality than then 1080p camera for sure. In fact the rear camera preview quality is better than the 4k front. That's disappointing. I'm using AT&T prepaid annual card in the US and it works very well. Buying guide, get the 512 storage card, a 30 second 4k clip is almost 500mb (after a lengthy ... MoreOverall the camera functions as expected, the original file (once downloaded which takes far too long) is very crisp and functions well in daylight.

Still my first choice, but wish they would improve the preview video quality and the download speed, even when connect to wifi it can be quite slow.
My new 970x Plus 2 Channel was never able to get a GPS signal since day one. The first interaction was pretty good, gave suggestions on what to try: flash firmware on PC, and outside of the car under clear sky to make sure it gets the best chance. And told me to report back if it didn't work, so I can get a replacement unit.The second support agent (Luke) was a whole different story. He just kept telling me that I need to try cloud connections to get the GPS working, even though I mentioned that GPS isn't related to the cloud features. But I went with it just to get things moving. So I registered a free trial, connected the dashcam to the cloud, and of course it didn't fix the GPS issue.

Sadly, since there is no review for the support agent included on the website, I have to leave the review here for the product.
I purchased this to replace my previous 7-year-old BlackVue camera. The construction feels rugged and well built, and I was able to reuse most of my old hardwire set-up for this camera so installation was quick and easy. It actually took me far longer to loosen the adhesive enough to remove the old camera from the glass than the time it took me to install and set up the new one.Once running, I'm impressed by the image quality and clarity of this new model. Plates and details are fairly crisp even at night. It's probably a good idea to upgrade the SD card to a larger size though as the included SD card will only store about 3 days worth of combined driving and parking mode footage at the highest quality for me.Unlike my old camera where it was possible to adjust ... MoreI purchased this to replace my previous 7-year-old BlackVue camera.

That's about the only gripe I have and personally it's not enough for me to take off a star, although I wish they would restore the ability for the user to adjust clip length in the future.
